Huskers have to deal with a sea of Scarlet in the horseshoe–Big Red Report (AUDIO)

It’s Homecoming in Columbus, Ohio and 100,000 fans will be a sea of Scarlet on Saturday night in what will be just the 11th night game at home for the Buckeyes who are 7-3 in their previous games under the lights inside the horseshoe.

Defensive coordinator John Papuchis says NU’s homecoming was a great dress rehearsal for his defense who must channel their emotions. It’s also important that the Blackshirts don’t put the offense behind the eight ball early. Communication will also be an issue for the offensive line, hearing assignments and play calls from Taylor Martinez.
